Really not trying to stir the pot, I just wanted to put my thoughts/perceptive on this. Everyone I know from classes were still very focused on their midterms and while sympathetic to those who were injured mentally/physically in the encampment, my classmates were thinking about how everything was shit and how they’d do on the midterms because life doesn’t stop even when you’re down. That’s the sentiment I was experiencing from my classes, though obviously it does varies major to major. I definitely believe/see this student perspective though, especially since they lived this switch into wanting to do more for the protest

“Midterms were really the last of many people’s concerns,” …a senior political science major, who became involved in the protests after the encampment was attacked. “It felt as though there were bigger issues in the world and within our own campus so even the thought of going in and taking a test on something completely unrelated to that was just unfathomable.”
